Following sell-out performances across the UK, Leeds-based Balbir Singh Dance Company head to Dorset with their exciting show 'Love & Spice', touring as part of the Artsreach spring programme. 

An elderly couple, still very much in love, look back on their lives together, reliving key moments through memories of the meals they shared.

As the couple reminisce, their younger selves appear and enact the memories of times past. The atmosphere is infused with the aromas of a richly spiced life.

With the couple's advancing age, each has lost one of their senses: he the sense of smell; she the sense of taste. Can the king and queen of spices, Black Pepper and Cardamom, help them recapture what has been lost?

The goddess of food and nourishment summons the butter-thief Krishna and the sweet-toothed elephant-headed god Ganesh to help her cook a special meal in the kitchen. Together they will try to revive the couple's lost senses, but what else will be rekindled along the way?

'Love and Spice' combines different art forms and cultural traditions in surprisingly delicious ways. Blending Kathak dance and live music with a chef cooking live on stage, expect a truly magical, multicultural feast for all the senses.

You can see 'Love & Spice' at Blandford Corn Exchange on Friday, February 24, and at Litton Cheney Village Hall, between Bridport and Dorchester, on Saturday, February 25.

Touring as part of the Artsreach spring season, further information and tickets are available online at www.artsreach.co.uk
